Conference budget
by Andrew Findlay 13 Jul '15

Kimball has put the draft budget here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1F-UCDffPexUkcfCrXVU9jyquik9KfsH_jGv… He says: > Sorry for the delay, I have been very busy, and am currently in the US for 3 > weeks. > > There is a lot of holes, i've based the conference prices on last years, but I > don't know prices or numbers for the tutorial, I don't have information about > sponsors and I don't have any data for the dinner. > > Everyone with the link can comment, and I have given Stephen write access. > > I don't have much time to dedicate to it, but I will setup eventbrite to take > payments once you have agreed on prices. It looks to me as if the big missing item is the conference dinner and its venue. There is also big uncertainty about tutorial numbers and costs. There is a likely error on the full-price rate. If early-bird is £175 then full-price is more likely to be £225 than £125... This adds £1700 to the expected income. We should allow for some admin costs at UKUUG - not clear whether that is the reason for the Admin Fees line. Leaving aside all tutorial costs and income for the moment, and costing the main dinner at £50/head all-in (big guess, but that is what it costs for a much smaller dinner that I run each year in the Thames Valley)... We get a total cost of about £12000 and a ticket income of about £6000 (£7700 if I am right above), leaving about £6000 to find from sponsors. In 2013 there were 4 Silver sponsors and 3 Gold, bringing in €10000 in total. Exchange rates have moved a lot since then (and could be very unstable for the next few months) but at current rates €10000 is about £7000 so we in the right ball-park. There are various approaches to costing the tutorials, partly depending on whether we are paying the presenters. We have not offered to do so, though some may need a fair amount of expenses. I suspect numbers will be lower on the tutorial day - maybe 35 rather than 70+. If we cost it pro-rata that would be £115 full-rate and £85 early-bird, bringing in perhaps £3400. Costs for that day would be low: daytime catering, some printing, a share of expenses, so at those prices it would be a net contributor to the income. Note that the ticket prices etc are not set in stone: this is for discussion. My feeling is to aim for a figure that will be certain to be safe, and to improve catering/giveaways/dinner/donation if numbers are good. Thoughts?

News on the organization?
by Clément OUDOT 10 Jul '15

10 Jul '15

Hi all, I would like to have some news on the organization of the LDAPCon. The deadline for talk submission will soon be here, maybe we need to send a message on social networks to remind it? (I can take care of that) I do not see on the website any sponsor, is it planned to have some? I know some companies that would like to be involved in this event. If you need help on any subject, please ask! Clément.

Submissions update
by Andrew Findlay 01 Jul '15

01 Jul '15

We are now past the submission deadline for LDAPCon 2015, though if more papers arrive in the next couple of days I am inclined to accept them for consideration. So far we have 33 papers and 4 tutorials. Another 2 papers and 1 tutorial are apparently on the way but I don't have enough detail yet to consider them. I plan to distribute a new pack to the programme committee later today. I would like to get at least some of the papers and tutorials approved by the middle of next week so that we can start showing some real content for the conference.
